Road construction to fix delays on one road have created new problems on another one, leaving many drivers on Highway 101 in the Greer area frustrated. A driver reached out to us frustrated with their morning and afternoon commute. Well, apparently she is not the only driver frustrated because SCDOT says they have received several complaints. SCDOT officials said they are working on a solution. Drivers are seeing backs up in the areas of from Memorial Drive Extension to Pine Drive sometimes. We did some digging and found some answers for why this is happening. This stretch of road has been on SCDOTs radar since 2016. "We have monitored the intersection, and then in 2018 based on the crash data we had at the time for safety reasons it was necessary to have a 3-way stop there to stop the major collision we were having there," said Brandon Wilson, the traffic engineer for District 3.This helped traffic from Milford Church Road enter onto Highway 101 but now it is causing backups for drivers on Highway 101. SCDOT officials said that is partly because of Gross Meadow Bridge being closed. It was deemed unsafe after an inspection so SCDOT had to close it. "Unfortunately, what that has done is pushed a lot of vehicles over to 101 and to that intersection," Wilson said.SCDOT is looking at whether or not to repair or completely replace the bridge. It is going to be a while before the bridge is fixed, officials said. So, engineers say they are not going to wait on the bridge to be fixed to hope that also fixes the congestion issues on Highway 101. "We are actively working on the intersection working to come up with a solution there to work that out then once the bridge opens back up it will just work even better," Wilson said.SCDOT officials said they are looking at several options including adding a traffic signal or replacing the three-way stop with flashers but it will probably be early next year before they get anything in the works.If there is something slowing down your commute or something you think is dangerous, we want to know about it.

Workers for Monadnock Construction prepare the foundation for the Catholic Charities Bishop Valero Residence in Astoria, Queens. (Photo: Bill Miller)
ASTORIA Construction of a new home for low-income people was about to start last spring in Queens, but the COVID-19 pandemic rattled all aspects of normalcy worldwide.
The Bishop Valero Residence, a project of Catholic Charities of Brooklyn and Queens, is expected to add 102 badly-needed apartments for seniors and formerly homeless adults. Its located at 23-11 31st Road in Astoria, Queens.
Financing for this $62 million effort depended on several partners, including the New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). The pandemic forced that agency to cut back on its budget by 40 percent for the rest of 2020, plus next year, according to David Downs, the deputy director of Catholic Charities Progress of Peoples Development Corporation.
The projects partners, realizing its importance, did not give up.
All the players chipped in to make the project work in the time frame we needed, Downs said. A lot of people had to make some concessions and be flexible.
For example, Downs said Catholic Charities and the city agreed to add more financing. The citys portion of the funding was key because it involved $3.1 million in low-income housing tax credits (LIHTC), which are expected to generate $30.8 million in equity over 15 years, nearly half of the money needed to build the project.
Other partners include Bank of America, Richman Housing Resources, and Barings, LLC. Dattner Architects designed the project and Monadnock Construction is the builder.
Although the projects closing was a few weeks late, construction started on time in June, which was a great relief, according to Downs.
We had our construction budget in place, but we could only guarantee costs through June, he said. Supply was a big concern for building materials like steel. So there was a lot of pressure on the team.
We had a calm exterior, but on the inside, we were very nervous.
Affordable Housing Shortage
The Progress of Peoples Development Corporation started making affordable housing in the 1970s serving families, formerly homeless people, senior citizens, and people with HIV.
The task has only gotten harder as New York Citys population swelled to about 8.6 million people, the biggest of all U.S. metropolitan areas. The citys expensive real estate market adds even more hurdles for land acquisition.
Tim McManus, vice president of Progress of Peoples Development Corporation, said a 2016 study showed there were 200,000 applicants for 20,000 affordable housing units in New York City.
Demand for senior affordable housing is a mess throughout the city, McManus said. We dont have numbers to suggest whats happened since COVID, but we know that number has grown.
The Bishop Valero Residence is the second affordable housing project from Catholic Charities to start in 2020. In January, ground broke on the eight-story, 135-unit Catholic Charities Loreto Apartments on Sackman Street in the Brownsville area of Brooklyn.
This site is the former address of Our Lady of Loreto Church, which was demolished in 2017. Nearby is the Catholic Charities Monsignor Anthony J. Barretta Apartments, which was opened in 2013 on the former site of Our Lady of Loreto School.
The Brownsville project began a few weeks before the pandemics onset in March and continued uninterrupted.
However, projects planned by other developers are not as fortunate, being stuck in a COVID-wrought financing limbo, adding to the frustration of advocates struggling with an existing shortage of affordable-housing citywide.
A lot of projects, McManus said, are still on the sidelines.
Build a Community
The six-story Bishop Valero Residence is expected to open in 2022 with nearly 85,000 square feet of space and environment-friendly features like solar panels.
Its located in a former parking lot for the existing Catherine Sheridan Senior Housing project, another property in the Progress of Peoples Development Corporations affordable-housing portfolio.
About 6,500 square feet are set aside for a ground-floor, 200-seat community center operated by Catholic Charities Neighborhood Services. Other amenities include a commercial kitchen serving hot meals, an exercise area, a computer lab, and a landscaped patio area.
We build buildings wed like to live in ourselves, Downs said.
Of the 102 units, 71 are designated for low-income senior citizens, while the other 31 are for formerly homeless seniors. All residents will have access to on-site social services.
We really are trying to put together a comprehensive model, providing not just for housing, but also social services to address the residents physical and social needs, McManus said.
Father Patrick Keating, deputy chief executive officer of Catholic Charities of Brooklyn and Queens, explained that low-income tenants deserve safe homes, hopefully in the neighborhoods where theyve lived and near their longtime parishes.
What we try to do is build a community, Father Keating said. But its not just buildings; its a greater integration of bricks and mortar with services. All our programs are interconnected.
Father Keating credited Msgr. Alfred LoPinto, chief executive officer, for devising a holistic approach to integrating services.
The Church teaches the dignity of every single person, Father Keating said, and by providing a safe home, youre serving that person, which allows us to fulfill our ministry.

Catholic Charities Stays on Its Quest for Affordable Housing - The Tablet Catholic Newspaper

Church Construction | Comments Off on Catholic Charities Stays on Its Quest for Affordable Housing – The Tablet Catholic Newspaper
A Christian group in the Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh is mulling a protest after the state government prevented construction of a church because it says it was illegal.
Arunachal Christian Forum (ACF) has asked the state government run by the pro-Hindu Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to quickly resolve the issue in Buddhist-majority Tawang town.
The present government says thatthe church is illegal as it is on public land, referring to the Supreme Court order that bars construction of religious structures in public places, but that is not the case here, Father Felix Anthony, spokesman for the Catholic Church in northeastern India, told UCA News.
People here who are for or against the construction of the church are not for disturbing the peace of the community that has been prevailing for years. People want the issues sorted out amicably. There is no question of disobeying the law written in the constitution.
Police in Tawang on the India-China border on Oct. 6 arrested Joseph Singhi, a pastor of Tawang Christian Revival Church, on charges of constructing a church without any land allotment.
He was arrested after a complaint by the district Land Revenue and Survey officer but was released the same day. Police also detained and interrogated eight others associated with the church.
ACF claimed that the church was established in 1999 and had given several applications seeking land allotment. The papers were submitted to the government through the local administration since 2003, but the authorities never responded.
It was a makeshift church and the problem arose in 2015 when work started on the construction of a permanent structure.
However, Tai Ete, president of Arunachal Pradesh Christian Revival Church Council, said nobody objected when the church was set up in 1999.
The problem started in 2015 when we started construction of the church. The government authorities said it was government land and we didnt have the land allotment order, Ete told media.
Ete said that in 2003 Gegong Apang, then chief minister, and the department concerned had no objection to the church. He claimed that the disputed site is unused and rejected.
Is India not a secular country? The right to freedom of religion is enshrined in the constitution to enable its citizens to freely profess and practice their religious beliefs, Ete said.
We want the case to be resolved amicably. They are harassing us intentionally. All have the right to propagate their own religion.
Arunachal Pradesh Christian Revival Church Council had earlier said Christians have no intention to disturb the way of life in Tawang, known for a 339-year-old Buddhist monastery.
ACF handed over a memorandum to Chief Minister Pema Khandu on Oct. 9 informing him about the blocking of the construction of a permanent structure where a temporary church has existed since 1999.
Christianity is the largest religion in Arunachal Pradesh followed by Hinduism. According to the census of 2011, Christians constituted 30.26 percent of the state's population. The Catholic Church is the largest Christian denomination in the state with around 180,000 adherents.

RCMP have arrested five people for chaining themselves and destroying property at TMX construction sites near Kamloops.
RCMP said about 12:40 p.m. on Thursday they were called after demonstrators had gathered at a Trans Mountain (TMX) drill site on Mission Flats Road in Kamloops, and were blocking work trucks from driving through the facility gate.
Officials talked to the demonstrators but three refused to move away from the gate; a 69-year-old man, a 44-year-old woman and a 57-year-old woman who had tied her arm to the fence with a zap strap.
Officers read a B.C .Supreme Court injunction to the three individuals who remained at the gate and they were arrested for allegedly being in civil contempt of the court order issued on June 1, 2018.
A second group of demonstrators had gathered and were blocking an active work site on the south mountain slope, said RCMP.
A 43-year-old woman was arrested for allegedly breaching the court-ordered injunction after she refused to leave and attached herself to a bulldozer.
All four arrested were transported to Kamloops RCMP Detachment for processing and released on condition. They are scheduled to appear in court on January 20, 2021.
A fifth individual, a 32-year-old woman, was observed destroying survey stakes across the road from the drill site, and was subsequently arrested by Kamloops RCMP for Mischief. She was released without charges.
Trans Mountain said in June, a workforce of 30-50 people will be working in Kamloops and this will increase to approximately 600 people at peak construction in the late summer or early fall.
The company said construction spending in the Kamloops area is expected to be more than $450 million over the next two years with additional workforce spending of more than $40 million for goods and services at local businesses.
After expansion, Trans Mountains annual contribution to the city of Kamloops in taxes will increase by $1.2 million to $2.8 million.
The feds bought the Trans Mountain pipeline for $4.5 billion in May, 2018, after Kinder Morgan, pulled out because of political and environmental opposition.
In February, the Federal Court of Appeal dismissed the latest attempt by four B.C. indigenous groups to quash the Government of Canadas approval of the TMX clearing the way for the 1,150-km, 890,000 bbl/d line between Edmonton and Burnaby.
The cost to complete the project, from Alberta to the lower mainland, now stands at $12.6 billion.
Construction along the entire route should be complete in 2022.
The original Trans Mountain Pipeline was built in 1953and the expansion is essentially a twinning of this existing 1,150-kilometre route.
The system will go from approximately 300,000 barrels per day to 890,000 barrels per day.
A reminder that demonstrators have the right to peaceful, lawful and safe protest and companies have a lawful right to complete their mandated work. The RCMP is working hard to protect both of these rights and ensure all parties and public are kept safe, said Cpl. Madonna Saunderson.

Pass the collection plate: Church fined $14000 for causing COVID outbreak - Western Standard

Church Construction | Comments Off on Pass the collection plate: Church fined $14000 for causing COVID outbreak – Western Standard

Grace Memorial Episcopal Church Rector Martin Elferts vision for a parking lot west of church buildings at 1535 N.E. 17th Ave. in Sullivans Gulch had to answer the question: How can we be the best possible stewards of our resources to mutually benefit our church and our community?
On the job for five years now, Elfert said his vision was at first modest and simple but has since blossomed into the idea not without some risk of developing a space that will serve the poor, the developmentally disabled and the arts with equal dignity.
Engaging a coalition of long-time collaborators like Grace Art Camps and PHAME PDX, Elfert enlisted the talents of Northwest Housing Alternatives to develop a concept that will soon move into its fundraising stage.
Grace Art Camps provides creative arts experiences for over 1250 children annually and PHAME PDX creates performance opportunities for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The teams proposal will include the construction of nearly 100 units of affordable housing on the upper floors of a six-story building, with about 24,000 square feet of office, church and classroom space on the ground floor. The L-shaped structure will be completely accessible. The church building, built in 1927, will remain as is.
Jenny Stadler, executive director of PHAME PDX for the past three years, is an eager participant and avid cheerleader for the project.
PHAME is booming by leaps and bounds, and we need more space, she said. Im especially enthused about a new, accessible performance theater that will serve the entire arts community.
Stadler said there is a huge lack of accessible performance and rehearsal space in the city.
Weve found in the church, landlords who are friends and who understand the equity and inclusiveness of our community, she said. As we grow and thrive, our organization will reach out to others in the community to help with the fundraising.
Rector Elfert characterized the project as the right people descending from heaven on a cloud to move the concept out of fantasy mode.
After conversations with Walsh Construction, Carleton Hart Architecture and capital campaign consultants, the church selected Northwest Housing Alternatives as its developer for the project.
Destin Ferdun, Northwests director of real estate development, said the regional agency is super-thrilled to come aboard.
The development team is eyeing the fall of 2023 as a possible completion date for the project and has proposed to the city that a short portion of Northeast 16th Avenue between Weidler and Halsey streets be vacated. Tentative schedules call for Grace Arts Camps to be moved off-site for 16 months during construction.
The main task now is getting the capital campaign back on schedule, said Elfert.

Church vision drives affordable housing project in Sullivan's Gulch - Hollywood Star News

The countries in Central and Eastern Europe have faced a century of hardship. They have been oppressed by radical communism, horrendous crimes against humanity, and revolutionary, civil, and world wars.
Under communism, religion and religious practices were openly persecuted, and atheism was actively propagated and enforced.
Control of every aspect of life was taken over by totalitarian governments and the communist party, and civil society and the economy were deconstructed.
The Aid to the Church in Central and Eastern Europe, part of the diocesan International Combined Collection, funds projects in 28 countries to build the pastoral capacity of the Church and to rebuild and restore the Faith in these countries.
The funds raised in the Collection for the Church in Central and Eastern Europe are used to support the renewal of vital aspects of the Church life: seminaries, youth ministry, social service programs, pastoral centers, church construction and renovation, and Catholic communications projects.
Years after the fall of communism, though some countries are now a part of the European Union and serve as examples of positive changes, a majority of the countries are lagging behind and still struggling to overcome the legacy and destruction left by the communist system.
The Catholics of these regions continue to need our help.
As a member of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishop's, USCCB, subcommittee on Aid to the Church in Central and Eastern Europe, Bishop Donald Hying visited two of these countries, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan, in 2019.
Bishop Hying said he made this visit "to be supportive of the Church and see what projects we could support." The progress these countries are making, after the fall of communism over 25 years ago, is encouraging. Churches were confiscated or destroyed, yet their faith is strong as they rebuild.
"They are very strong in faith and dedicated to the Church and each other. For many years, they practiced their faith underground, living without priests and the sacraments," Bishop Hying commented. He was inspired by their commitment to their faith, commenting "their faith is the essence of their lives."
The International Combined Collection is held every October in parishes across the Diocese of Madison.

A stalled affordable housing project near the Ballston Metro station is poised to get a three-year extension.
The Ballston Station project, set to be built on the site of the Ballston Central United Methodist Church at 4201 Fairfax Drive, was previously approved by the County Board in 2017 and again in 2019. The latter approval upsized the project from 119 units, including 48 designated as affordable, to 144 units of 100% committed affordable housing.
The Board previously also allocated $3.1 million in affordable housing loan funds to the project.
The church and its development partner, the Arlington Partnership for Affordable Housing, are now going back before the Board this weekend, seeking to extend the now-closed window for beginning construction through October 2023.
The developers are also seeking a minor change to the affordability mix, switching six units from being affordable to those making up to 30% of the Area Median Income to 60% AMI, to make the project more fiscally sustainable.
The planned eight-story building will still include a daycare facility for up to 100 kids and a church space with up to 200 seats, as well as eight visitor parking space and 0.25 parking spaces per apartment.
County staff is recommending approval of the proposed site plan amendment, but there is some opposition from neighbors in the adjacentSummerwalk condo complex at 1020 N. Stafford Street.
The condo association is concerned about parking, noting that their own building has insufficient parking and condo residents who are barred from participating in the countys under-review Residential Permit Parking Program find parking on the street difficult as it is. The association is also concerned about their future neighbors making the area less desirable.
More from the county staff report:
In addition to the previously submitted concerns from the Summerwalk Condo Association, a new comment has been submitted regarding the project having changed in 2019 to a commitment of 100% affordable units on site. The Association notes that the previous proposal of a mixed income housing development would better serve the needs of the entire community and instill a greater sense of equality within the neighborhood. The Association also notes concerns that the project being 100% affordable will make the surrounding area less desirable.
In response, county staff assert that the parking ratio is in line with existing parking policies, while the project meets multiple affordable housing goals, including units in close proximity to transit. It alsoprovides an opportunity for a mixed-income neighborhood as most nearby developments are predominately market-rate, staff wrote.
